#ventures-paramount-phonegap-plugin-notificationhubs

A plugin based on the PhoneGap Push plugin adapted to work with Azure Notification Hubs.

To see a working example please check: https://github.com/ParamountVentures/AzureNotificationHubsCrossPlatformDemo

#Windows In the current version of Cordova (5.2.0) the Identity within the AppManifest is NOT updated with the correct package information after a build. Hence to use push notifications, you MUST update the Identity element within your package.phone.appxmanifest to be the that of your app registered in the Windows Store:

e.g. <Identity Name="MyPackage.Name" Publisher="CN=0000000-1111-2222-3333-444444444" Version="1.0.0.0" />

##iOS Key Points##

• Follow the steps to set up iOS provisioning

  https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/notification-hubs-ios-get-started/

• Don’t try debugging push in simulator - device only for push notifications

• The latest version of the messaging SDK for iOS can be found at:

  https://github.com/Azure/azure-mobile-services/blob/master/CHANGELOG.ios.md#sdk-downloads

#Overview This plugin uses a combination of the official PushPlugin (for iOS and Android) and the Microsoft Open Technologies Notification Hub plugin for Windows. You need to check for the device and use the appropriate script as follows:

var connectionString = 'STRING';
var notificationHubPath = 'STRING';
var tags = 'tag1,tag2,tag3';  // null for broadcast

if (device.platform == "windows") {

        var hub = new WindowsAzure.Messaging.NotificationHub(notificationHubPath, connectionString);

        hub.registerApplicationAsync(tags).then(function (result) {
            console.log("Registration successful: " + result.registrationId);
        });

        hub.onPushNotificationReceived = function (msg) {
            console.log('onPushNotificationReceived:' + JSON.stringify(msg));
        };
    } else {

        try {
            var hub = NotificationHub.init(notificationHubPath,
              connectionString,
              tags,
              {
                  "android": {
                      "senderID": "0000000"
                  },
                  "ios": {}
              });

            hub.on('registration', function (data) {
                console.log("registration event");
                console.log(JSON.stringify(data));
                console.log(data.registrationId);
            });

            hub.on('notification', function (data) {
                console.log("notification event");
                console.log(JSON.stringify(data));
            });

            hub.on('error', function (data) {
                console.log("notification error");
                console.log(JSON.stringify(data));
            });

        } catch (e) {
            console.log(e);
        }
    }
